It's fine. That's not an error message, just a warning. The
serviceinfo.xml file is not intended to be displayed to a user so it
doesn't require a stylesheet to be associated with it; it's just used by
Red Carpet to discover what channels a service offers.

No, Mozilla is fine -- it sees if there is a stylesheet to tell it how
to display the data, finds there isn't one, warns you of that, and then
displays the document tree instead. The xml file itself doesn't need a
stylesheet because it's not intended for being displayed in a browser.

What is mysterious is why on Igor's machine rug/red-carpet is claiming
that it gets a 404 file not found error whenever it tries to access that
file.
